CAMDEN — After an opening weekend of tournaments, Jonesville bested local foes Reading and Camden-Frontier at a tri-match Tuesday night.
The hosting Redskins beat the Rangers in the night’s other match.
The games were the first to be played amongst county teams during the new season.

Jonesville def. Reading 25-17, 25-18
The Comets opened up a 7-0 lead in the first set on their Big 8 rivals and never looked back as they grabbed their first win of the year.
Both teams were a little short-handed, with Reading missing Brittany Marquart and Jonesville playing without Kelsey Branham and Liz Cousino.
“We were definitely lacking communication in the back (without Marquart),” said Reading Head Coach Nicole Bailey.
Jonesville’s defense was solid all night, keeping balls in play for the Comet attack.
They kept the game at their pace throughout, maintaining a lead of five to nine points by the middle of both games.
The Comets’ first win came after an 0-4 weekend at the Carrie Adams St. Phil Tournament in Battle Creek.
“I felt like they learned a lot over the weekend,” said Jonesville Head Coach Debbie Proctor-Bigelow. “They did a nice job tonight.”
